"Are you ready?" inquired my secretary.

"Yea" I answered wincing at her, resulting a crimson red blush on her cheeks, her head still bowed down.

"Look at me" I whispered, intentionally letting my breath beat on her neck when suddenly-

"BuZzzz"

That was a silly mistake.

"I quit!"

What?

"I am sorry sire, I have a mate. And it's not possible for me to be attracted to another male. Again sorry. My resignation letter will be on your desk this afternoon."

Ugh, she was cute.

"What do you want, Rosaleen ?" I instinctively took my sister's name as I reached my annoying buzzing phone.

"So, who's the victim of the week?" she asked with a suggestive tone, making me wonder why she's my sister.

"Why do you victimise those beautiful ladies"I heard her stifling her laughter on the other side.

"If they are ladies" and there she goes again, with her theory that perhaps my girlfriends are aliens. Where does she fetch such ideas?

I glance at the clock, holy shit, it's past eight!!!

"Rosé catch ya later" I hung the phone, quickly ran down the stairs in my Mercedes, to be in my office just in time for the conference.

I probably need to stop flirting...wait, it's my natural aura that attracts women. I don't do anything, am not to be blamed.

"Mr Blahan, miss Jules left! Who is going to present our project?"came my senior manager.

Screw that natural aura!

"Let me handle it" I command him, whilst he handles me the files and briefed me on the project.

"That meeting looked like forever!" screamed Rosé beside me.Yeah she's an important executive director...ugh she's even more annoying off phone. I pay no heed to her to which-

"Knock knock!" she taps my head ,messing with my hair.

No one touches my hair.

Grabbing her hands, "Do n-"

"not touch my hair" she completes my sentence before adding "blah blah blah" mocking me.

I hate her.

"What the hell happened with Jules anyway? Don't tell me you used your pathetic tricks on her too" and when I do not reply she gets her answer.

"I hired another one already for you. And you can thank me later" she announced, ever so grateful.

I don't hate her that much. Nah, still won't say thanks... Ethan never apologies nor is he required to be humble.

"You can keep your ego to yourself, babe" Rosé shouted as she  made her way out of my office.

Did she just called me babe? Gross.

"You are going to be screwed."

With that she left me, with a pile of files waiting to be scanned.

No but seriously I need a secretary who can handle my hotness- and my work of course.

"Good morning, Alpha" greeted my Beta, always punctual, handing me the tray of breakfast, announcing the tiresome day.

"It's here" he tries to crack the silence. What's here?
He seems to notice my bewilderment , as he continues

"Your letter has been accepted. The first step of the plan successfully executed" he clarifies handing me the letter that states that now I am the newly hired secretary of Mr E .Blahan.

Revenge. I will NEVER let you down Lucien. Never. They are going to pay for the pensive pain they gave to you, to this pack– our family.

"Did you arrange the witch?" I asked, my voice echoing in the dinning room, stern and strict.

"Yes, Alpha. She will be here soon" concluded Nathan.

As a Beta he was always loyal, to Lucien and even with me, considering that neighboring packs finds a female Alpha being ridiculous. But they dare not state their opinion since we are the most feared and largest pack in the East.

The pack of Pine Woods owns the title of the most dreaded pack and its current Alpha is this certain brat called Ethan. He was described as being that arrogant playboy, filthy rich and all that crap. How I pity his fellow mate.

But he is the target that am after, the murderer of my brother who was the former Alpha of Everest wood pack. He mercilessly betrayed us when Lucien only went to them with a friendly deal that was meant to end the centuries of enemity they shared with us.

Had I known that they were that loyal, I would have never let Lucien go. I feel responsible for the death of Lucien because it was my idea to reconcile the two packs. I thought love and kindness would win over their pitiful mindset, but I was terribly wrong.

My one mistake had brought to ruin my family who looked after my brother and I after the death of my parents– the pack.

They loved us, raised us, gave us all required comforts, Lucien grew to be a strong admired Alpha , many describing him like my father- willful, powerful, handsome, responsible and mature at a very young age- everything to which I was the contrary.

I used to be childish, full with laughter, giggling everywhere I went, did crazy stuff, people called me the 'loving princess' as they saw me as their previous Luna,my mother, caring about the pack. I still do care but I have the role of an Alpha now.

I cannot let down this family. I cannot let down the sacrifice Lucien did. I am accountable for the misery everyone went through. I need to fix this and it is only possible through this plan of revenge. Pine Woods pack will pay the price quite heavy.

Taking out my admission letter, I closed my eyes, remembering Lucien as if telling me not to go forward with this plan, but brother, the princess is no more. She died with you, they killed the princess, born from rage is a stabbed Queen.

Knock. Knock.

Suddenly I was brought back from my little break down.
"She is here" Nathan informed me," the witch you asked for, is here" he elaborates further.

Time for step two.
